I've got myself a nice Ecovacs Deebot 950, because one of the Roombas is getting really old (12 years and still going strong). It's my first one connected to WiFi, since the others are legacy. I've found a nice mqtt library and it's already pushing to my broker in real time, but I'm wondering if there's a generic device template and/or service, otherwise I'll start building one and I'll try to keep it as much generic as possible.

Hi akbooer,
I've an installation with a centralized openluup/DY on Debian 11 where're archived and consolidated several remote openluup/DY on RPI. I'm also using a user-defined (defined with your support) "DataUser.lua" to process metrics and creating different metric names. I've a schema of this configuration but I can't upload on forum.
I'd like to manage outage network connections between remote and centralized system while the remote DY is running and archives data locally.
I see the whisper-fill.py python routine (https://github.com/graphite-project/whisper/blob/master/bin/whisper-fill.py) from Graphite tool. I know that DY/whisper format is different from Graphite/whisper (CSV vs. binary packing), but based on your deep knowledge and experience is it hard to adapt the fill routine to DY/whisper format ?tnks

Hi,
I've installed switchboard plugin from openluup app store but I'm not sure which action to use to create a binary switch. I try "addswitch" action but I see the device only after using the "addchild" action too. is it correct ?Attached the openluup device screen, the control switchboard and the actions i see.

Hi @akbooer,
I have an updated version of one of my plugins but I cannot publish it in the ALTApp Store. When I click publish it gets in a sort of loop of Refreshing Token.../Token refreshed. However, I never get to page to refresh the token.
Looking at the browser debug window I see this as the response to http://192.168.178.101:3480/data_request?id=lr_ALTUI_Handler&command=refresh_auth_token
{"error":{"code":400,"message":"Bad Request - invalid_grant","step":"Get access token from refresh token"}}Running openLuup v21.7.25. Any suggestion?
Cheers Rene

Hi,
Sorry if I missed it but how do I update the .json file of my plugins so that I can make the text/content visible on the tile itself, via openLuup/ALTui dashboard ?
The same plugins on Vera show the content ?

Hi Patrick/AK Booer
I am able to see Reactor expressions in the AltUI UI per the below and the expressions work as they should in my reactor sensors. When an expression changes, the reactor sensor responds accordingly.
However, I cannot see the expressions in luup state variables or the luup logs:
I tried reinstalling openLuup (latest development) and when that failed to change the noted behavior, I reinstalled lua5.1. There was also no change. Rebooting the machine also produced no change.
I suspect this is an openLuup issue as I also see nil values for some plugins:And other plugins are fine:

I just published an update to my Virtual Devices Plug-in.
What's new in version 1.5:
support for async HTTP (out of the box on openluup, just download https://github.com/akbooer/openLuup/blob/master/openLuup/http_async.lua and copy with the plug-in files on Vera) experimental support for setpoints management in Virtual Heaters (you know, the device will turn itself off if temperature is reached, and automatically on when temperature is not beyond the setpoint) external device for temperature in Virtual Heaters (just set urn:bochicchio-com:serviceId:VirtualHeater1/TemperatureDevice variable) small fixes, stabilizationGrab your copy from https://github.com/dbochicchio/vera/tree/master/VirtualDevices
As always, 100% local, 100% apps friendly, 100% supported by Alexa (and Google Home, I guess).

This topic has come up before but I haven't seen an answer. Symptom: AltuUI says there is a new update available, so you tell it to do the update but the update does not happen. AltUI remains stuck on it's old version. On other occasions it works OK. So my version is:
AltUI v2.49.2546, © 2019AltUI says this:
a newer version #2551 of ALTUI is available, do you want to upgrade ? add scrollable dialog for long boxes bugfix: clock display on safari remote url update ( @olov ) update jquery and bootstrap versions credential to camera device url ( @rafale77 ) ignore Ezlo hub ( @reneboer)Track through the JavaScript and find that this issues the update command:
function _triggerAltUIUpgrade(newversion,newtracnum) { var url = '?id=action&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=CreatePlugin&PluginNum=8246&Version={1}&TracRev={0}'.format(newversion,newtracnum); return _httpGet(url,{}).always( function() { PageMessage.message(_T("Upgrade Request succeeded, a Luup reload will happen"),"success"); }); };And the url variable equals:
url: "?id=action&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=CreatePlugin&PluginNum=8246&Version=40628&TracRev=2551"All looks good so far. I manually issue the same url complete with my openLuup ip_address in a local browser. Update fails - looks like AltUI is doing as it should:
http://ip_address:3480/data_request?id=action&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=CreatePlugin&PluginNum=8246&Version=40628&TracRev=2551In openLuup I see:

Then I check GitHub. It shows the latest changes to the version 2551. However this page says the latest version is 2550.
So I wondering what's going on. Seems the latest version number is not being picked by the installer? (not sure how it works.) Is it possible for openLuup to log a bit more about the version it's trying to install. As this call returns.
https://api.github.com/repos/amg0/ALTUI/contents?ref=2551 message "No commit found for the ref 2551" documentation_url "https://docs.github.com/v3/repos/contents/"But this works fine:
https://api.github.com/repos/amg0/ALTUI/contents?ref=2550So it looks like AMG0 doesn't always update the repository with whatever is needed to get this to work (I imagine that's easy to forget). But could openLuup send back a fail result to AltUI and AltUI pick that up? Currently it looks like AltUI always assumes everything went OK. Or somehow; could openLuup log and/or notify the user what went wrong?

Hi @toggledbits and others,
Could you help me out with the following use case? I have a z-wave module that doesn't have scene functionality, but I want to trigger a double click action on the switch.
What is the easiest way to do this in reactor? I'm struggling with this and I think I'm thinking too complex at this point.
-
Well, I disappeared down a rabbit hole on a different mission and resurfaced with this monstrosity.
What does it do?
It translates button functions for various (certainly not all) IRP protocols to Pronto codes. These can then be sent by a plugin that sends Pronto Codes to IR transmitters - such as the BroadLink Plugin or the GC100 Plugin (or similar).
The IRP protocol "Device", "Subdevice" and "Function" numbers are stored in a json file as buttons for "virtual remotes".
So you could have say three physical IR transmitters and want to command different AV devices (ie TVs, AVR, Xmas tree, etc) in the vicinity of those various IR emitters.
The button codes are far less cumbersome than heaps of pronto codes. You can set up a virtual remote for each AV device in the json file. Each physical emitter can be assigned to any virtual remote. And away you go!
Well - you already have a pile of pronto codes already running just fine? However, as the plugin "manufacturers" pronto codes, you could also use it to scan/search for functions for any AV device you may have. GitHub has an example for Pioneer: SearchForButtonCodes.lua
Find "Device", "Subdevice" and "Function" codes:

@toggledbits Hi Patrick. I had my internet go down for about 12 hours the other day, and that experience encouraged me to work on getting my HA off the cloud to the extent that I can. I have not converted my Veras to local devices yet, though after the next VeraPlus stable firmware release, I will probably run your scripts to localize the device as I don't see Ezlo surviving to maintain Vera firmware.
My question concerns the icons in your plugins. While attempting to mod a reactor sensor during the outage, I could not really do anything (without a sense of risk anyway) as the icons used are pulled from your website. Many Vera plugins operate this way--no doubt to save space on the vera, and my inclination was to manually start downloading what I needed when the outage was over. I run everything on openLuup and space is not an issue. It occurred to me that localizing a plugin could be a button push somewhere in the plugin UI where one could auto download any needed icons and the plugin would recognize the local copy first, before trying the cloud.
Could this be a possible enhancement to your plugins? I don't really have a technical grasp of whether this would be workable or not.

So, Amazon recently released the ability to execute spoken commands.
dbochicchio/VeraAlexa: Alexa plug-in for Vera and openLuup. (github.com)
Using my plug-in, you could just do something like this:
luup.call_action("urn:bochicchio-com:serviceId:VeraAlexa1", "RunCommand", {Command="-e textcommand:'Alexa, I’m leaving' -d 'Bedroom'"}, 666)Or any spoken command that's not directly accesible via routines. Something like
"Play music everywhere"
"TV volume to 32"
"Pause TV"and much more 🙂
Give it a try!

The plugin has been updated to ver 0.56 which improves the RF learning procedure. It also recognises some of the newer RM4 devices (thanks Bruce Lacey).
Existing uses just need to upload the "L_BroadLink_Mk2_1.lua" file.
RF learning has been improved but is never particularly reliable. You can invoke testing by executing this code in the Lua Test box:
local DeviceID = the_id_of_the_IR_child_device luup.call_action('urn:a-lurker-com:serviceId:IrTransmitter1', 'LearnRFCode', {}, DeviceID) return trueRunning the code illuminates the LED on the BroadLink device. If you do nothing at this point, the learning times out after about 24 seconds and the result is "No RF code was learnt".
While in the learning mode, tap the remote button to be learnt, every 2/3 of a second or so. If the LED goes out (typically after about say 5 seconds) some result was learnt.
The result can be found in the parent device by looking at the variable "LearntRFCode". However, it is far easier to look at the log file, which logs the process as it proceeds and also the result. You need to learn a few results to try and determine if the results are at all consistent.

Sharing what I believe is a great way to add support to devices that used to work but since existing plugin haven't been maintain by the original authors (or any other developer in the community) have stopped working as they've abandon or moved to other platform...
Homebridge has a large and very active community and I think this type of plugin will a good way to benefit from it.
It will bring any device that have been configured in homebridge into openluup.
Currently it support, thermostat (Nest and others), Switches (Specially MyQ), Dimmers, Switches, Motion Sensors, Door Lock (Open/close) Support to other type of device can easily be added.

openLuup: SmartSwitch plugin

This plugin was updated by @vosmont to run under openLuup (and possibly UI7.)
@DesT recently asked for a slight addition to its functionality, so I'm adding this thread to discuss the changes.
-
Requirement from @DesT is that instead of using the device numbers to specify linked devices, it would be nice to be able to use names. That way, a change requiring a change of device (perhaps new hardware, or something now running locally, rather than bridged from elsewhere) could be automatic, if the device name was preserved.
The original author (@hugheaves, that's Hugh Eaves) had a somewhat idiosyncratic coding style, and I've tried to preserve that whilst making minimal changes. In brief:
- a new variable
UseSwitchNamesshould be set to 1 to switch to names mode - a new variable
SwitchNamesautomatically maintains a list of the device names - the existing
SwitchIdsvariable is watched to keep theSwitchNameslist synchronised
The last change above is required because the
SwitchIdsvariable is actually changed by JavaScript code from the device Settings tabs, rather than from an action within the Lua code.I've created my own fork of the original Hugh Eaves repository, added an openLuup branch with the changes by Vosmont (not available in one of his GitHub repositories), and then layered my own change on top, to preserve the change history for future reference:

@akbooer Just need to update the only file you changed? Can I convert my actual config or I need to start fresh ?

Yes, just that file.
It will use your current config and create the necessary variables. You just have to set the
UseSwitchNamesvariable to 1. -
@akbooer
Just copied your file, and reload... and I'm having this new device also...

Yes, that’s not a problem, and nothing to do with this plugin change.
Go buy some Shellies...!

-
That wasn’t on the list!
-
@akbooer I know... I just see it when playing with it!
But seriously, this new version will save me time
Thanks again AK!
-
I’ll take another look.
-
Updated version 2.0.2 has (I think / hope) the added functionality for Sensor names.
It's in the same place, and the update process is the same.
-
If you feel like linking it to the store I'll update the store list: List of plugins available at the Alternative App Store.
We should round up as many old plugins that we find and get them into GitHub and the store (as long as they are not proprietary). eg I would like to see the Sonos app in the store (it's in GitHub) but togglebits seems to be busy on some other new fangled plugin.
-
I can't believe I never did it... but it's done now!
@akbooer On a related note, what do we put in for the ID if we have a plugin that never was in the Vera App Marketplace and has no Vera plugin ID?
Author of Multi-system Reactor and Reactor, DelayLight, Switchboard, and about a dozen other plugins that run on Vera and openLuup.
-
@toggledbits said in openLuup: SmartSwitch plugin:
@akbooer On a related note, what...
Something unique, not numeric, so SmartSwitch, for example.
-
In the device list we have:
Is it easy to add "Zone 10" just under "Mode: Off" ?
Zone 10 is coming from the settings "tab"
This way, it will be easy to see which devices trigger the smartswitch without having to do them 1 by 1 and check in the Settings tab...
-
The Settings tab is all JavaScript stuff, not Lua. Although the device panel data is stored in a device variable (and set in Lua) I'm not sure where to find the relevant information. I'll have to look more closely.
-
I've installed SmartSwitch on my development machine, and I think I'm not understanding something...
...it's the case that there could be multiple trigger devices, hence you'd need room for multiple names here?
-
@akbooer yeah but in my case I never use multiple devices
-
@dest said in openLuup: SmartSwitch plugin:
I never use multiple devices
OK, you'll find an updated Lua file, v2.0.3, here:
It lists the name of the first trigger device. In the event that you do use more than one trigger, there will be an ellipsis "..." added after the first name (to give at least some visual indication that something is going on.)
I've done nothing to guard against the line overflowing or wrapping because of a long name.
